Screen legends Robert De Niro and Al Pacino both play veteran New York police detectives in this thriller. Turk (De Niro) and Rooster (Pacino) have been partners for years, and they are working together on the case of a serial killer whose victims have all committed violent crimes, but are turned loose by the courts. A younger pair of cops (John Leguizamo and Donnie Wahlberg) is also assigned to the case. But suspicion begins to mount that the killer might be a member of the police force meting out vigilante justice. Other actors appearing in the movie are Carla Gugino and Brian Dennehy.
